Jigsaw House Cronulla: A Masterpiece of Design and Luxury

The Jigsaw House in Cronulla is more than just a residence; it’s a stunning waterfront property that has garnered national attention. In collaboration with EB Interiors, renowned for their expertise in creating unique and high-end design solutions, Innovate Architects, and BR Building, a leading construction company with over 25 years of industry experience, this project pushes the boundaries of luxury living.

Drawing inspiration from some of Australia’s most luxurious boutique hotels, the Jigsaw House wasn’t designed to be just a home; it’s a full-fledged lifestyle experience. This five-level residence caters to a large family, seamlessly integrating custom design elements with high-end finishes throughout. The vision was to create an entertainer’s dream house that embodies the essence of its stunning bayside setting.

EB Interiors’ Vision

Known for their commitment to quality materials, aesthetic appeal, and beautiful textures, EB Interiors worked closely with the client to deliver a truly exceptional interior. Their relaxed studio environment fostered creativity and innovation, ensuring that every detail of the Jigsaw House surpassed expectations.

BR Building’s Expertise
Under the leadership of Ben Richardson, BR Building brought their extensive experience and skilled tradesmen to the project, ensuring that the construction phase was executed with precision and quality. Their personalised approach and strong relationships with all parties involved contributed to the project’s success.

Sareen Stone’s Two-Tone Porphyry Cobblestones: The Perfect Complement

Our Two-Tone Porphyry Cobblestones were selected to enhance this remarkable home’s exterior. These durable, slip-resistant stones run seamlessly from the street down the driveway and into the garage, creating a cohesive and inviting entrance. Inspired by Australia’s most luxurious boutique hotels, the Jigsaw House was designed to be a lifestyle experience.

The cobblestones’ light and dark grey blend seamlessly complement the home’s modern aesthetic, adding a touch of visual intrigue to the driveway and outdoor living spaces.

More Than Just Beauty

Beyond their aesthetic appeal, our Two-Tone Porphyry Cobblestones offer unmatched performance. With three pools on the property, durability and slip-resistance were essential. Porphyry is renowned for its strength and resistance to weathering, ensuring the driveway and walkways can withstand years of use.

Easy Maintenance, Lasting Style

The Jigsaw House embodies effortless luxury, and our cobblestones reflect that. Their easy installation and low-maintenance requirements ensure the home’s exterior continues to look pristine with minimal effort.

A Testament to Collaboration

This project is a testament to the power of collaboration between skilled designers, architects, builders, and material suppliers. EB Interiors’ expertise in creating unique and high-end design solutions, combined with BR Building’s construction expertise and the quality and durability of our Two-Tone Porphyry Cobblestones, has resulted in a truly exceptional property that sets the standard for luxury living.

TAKE US THROUGH THE INITIAL STAGES WHEN YOU WERE DESIGNING THE HOME.

We were very fortunate to work with the noted Southern Highlands Architect, Martin McGrane, on the creative design and layout of our home. Together with Martin, we created a beautiful, contemporary open plan home to enjoy with our family and friends.  This is our forever home.

Through a friend of ours, we came across an interior designer, and a beautiful outdoor material, the Cathedral Limestone, which we just fell in love with. We worked closely with Peta Daniel, Interior Designer from Daniel Baker Design, based in Sydney.  Which was wonderful, Peta just got us and what we were wanting to achieve in our home and helped us to make it a reality, in the selection of materials and finishes.

 

WERE THERE CERTAIN PEOPLE/PLACES THAT YOU TOOK INSPIRATION FROM WHEN DESIGNING/BUILDING THE HOME?

We were looking for a contemporary design, however, I didn’t want it to be too modern.  Inspired by a property in LA, that my husband came across, which we took some concepts from and added our ideas, and made it our own.

The LA contemporary look and detail leading into the house from the front door was something that we just loved.  Along with having one row of tiles that runs along the inside of the glass sliding doors leading into the living/dining room from the alfresco space was also a unique detail we wanted to include.

WHAT WERE SOME OF THE CHALLENGES YOU FACED THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING PROCESS?

The build started in February 2020, and with all the delays throughout COVID, material delays, supplier issues, constant rain, mud pools, you name it, we had it!  Encountering all the possible elements, it felt like we were living in gumboots most of the time during the build.  It took 3 years to build the property, and 8 months just to get the roof on!

We had a deadline for our home to be finished by, which was our daughters’ wedding, being held in March 2023.

There were delays happening everywhere, including issues and delays with the quarry who were providing the Limestone that was to be used in all the outdoor areas surrounding the property.  We had chosen Cathedral Limestone in an alfresco finish with a lovely organic distressed finish on the edge, that we knew would complement the other natural materials we were using.  Time was of the essence, and it came to crunch time and the quarry could not provide a guaranteed time of delivery.  We thought what a disaster!

 

TELL US ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH SAREEN STONE.. AND HOW THE TEAM HELPED TO OVERCOME THE SUPPLY ISSUE WITH THE CATHEDRAL LIMESTONE.

Working closely with Michael Mastro, from Sareen Stone, he had been in constant contact updating me as best he could.  Then an alternative solution was presented, another Limestone of the same size and finish, with similar tones, which I hoped would work and arrive in time.  Sareen Stone had been behind the scenes working closely with another quarry, to create a new product ‘Lavarosa Anticato’, just for our project, so that we had a solution and were able to finish our home in time for our daughter’s wedding.

When the material arrived, we couldn’t have been happier.  We just loved the Lavarosa Anticato, and it worked so well with our colour palette, and love it even more than our previous selection.  We were over the moon!

 

DESIGNER COMMENTS:

Working with Kate and Eugene on this project was wonderful. They were passionate about the overall design but also the finer details and the interplay of the natural materials with the surrounding landscape.

It was very important that the natural material palette was harmonious, and that each element was both complementary and warm.

I’ve worked with Michael from Sareen Stone on a number of projects and have always been impressed with his professional advice and clear communication. The magnificent home warmly wrapped with the “Lavarosa Anticato” is simply stunning.   A beautiful project!
